New Music Releases Thread

[mid_gen]

There's enough threads about old stuff everyone's listening to....in the interests of discovering new stuff, how about a thread for your pick of the new releases.

This week, I'm listening to :

Daphni - Cherry - Latest album from Dan Snaith's (Caribou) side project.

Scone Cash Players - Brooklyn to Brooklyn - I'm an absolute sucker for modern soul and everything on Daptone Records, this is another gem.

Makaya McCraven - In These Times - Hard to put in a genre, kinda jazz/electronic/hip-hop sounds, think BadBadNotGood. Very good either way.

This week's new releases, I'm having a listen to :

Kutiman - Open - An Israeli artist I got into during lockdown with his excellent ambient album Surface Currents (that I still work to a lot of the time). Really enjoying this more traditional soulful blues rock sound.

Booka Shake - Contour EP - Love a bit of booka!

Rival Consoles - Now Is - Not listened to this guy before, interesting electronic sounds, just showed up on my Tidal recommendations, digging it so far.

I'll keep digging throughout the day...

Some belters this week :

Sault - 11

Sault are just bloody amazing, mix of soul, hip-hop, disco. They're amazingly prolific as well, and actually dropped 5 albums in the last week. 11, Earth, Today & Tomorrow, Air and Untitled(God). Thankfully the vinyl release is a way off so I don't have to buy them all now

Redcar - les adorables etoiles (prologue)

The latest incarnation of Héloïse Adélaïde (Christine & The Queens). Bloody ace. Really need to see him live.
